A polishing tool with a carrier comprising a polishing surface on which a polishing paste is applied at least in some areas, wherein the polishing surface consists of a nonwoven fabric, the polishing paste is in a solid state at room temperature and is applied on the polishing surface to be covered in an amount of 0.08 g/cm.sup.2 to 0.30 g/cm.sup.2.

Disclosed is a process for making a grinding wheel for the squaring of ceramic, formed by a support body and an abrasive ring. The process does not involve costly workings on the body and on the ring and produces a light grinding wheel which, therefore, is more practical to be handled by the handling machine.

A method of transferring a shaped particle to a substrate includes providing a scrim of at least two elongate strands periodically joined together at flexible bond regions to form an array of apertures between the strands. The scrim is extended along at least one direction to increase the minimum dimension of the apertures. Shaped particles are applied to the extended scrim and at least a portion of the shaped particles enter in at least some of the apertures therein. The extended scrim is relaxed and frictionally retains the particles between the elongate strands. The particle loaded scrim is extended along at least one direction to release and transfer the shaped particles to the substrate in a predetermined orientation.

A composite coating is provided for a tool. The tool can be a pair of scissors or a screwdriver for example. The tool is made with at least one contact face. The composite coating includes diamond grains and layer of metal oxide. The metal oxide is used as an adhesive to secure the diamond grains to the contact face.

A portable handheld cleaning device is provided capable of cleaning the surface of the substrate table without damaging the surface. The portable handheld cleaning device in accordance with the present disclosure includes a base having a first side and a second side (the first side and the second side overlapping each other), a hollow structure on the first side of the base, and a weight holding space within the hollow structure. A grinding pad is provided on the second side of the base. The grinding pad includes a cleaning surface, the cleaning surface having a plurality of substantial pyramid shaped grits.

A method for the surface treatment of workpieces by means of abrasive media, and a surface treatment composition. The method comprises the steps of providing a treatment tool, providing an abrasive medium, supplying a workpiece having a surface to be treated, surface treating the workpiece, involving removal of material and producing waste products, and processing the waste products, wherein at least one of said steps comprises adding an additive to lower a self-ignition tendency on the part of the waste products, the additive comprising a salt, composed of a carbonate and/or of a halogen anion.

The present disclosure relates generally to coated abrasive articles that include a tribological performance enhancing composition in a make coat, a size coat, a supersize coat, or combinations thereof, as well as methods of making coated abrasive articles. The present disclosure also relates to coated abrasive articles including a supersize coating comprising a sulfide scavenging composition and/or a crosslinked zinc acrylic binder, as well as methods for making and using such abrasive articles. The present disclosure also relates generally to abrasive articles that include aggregates having an anti-wear composition or grinding aid disposed on or within the aggregates.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a grinding material which has a superior grinding rate and planarizing accuracy, with the grinding rate being less likely to be reduced over a relatively long period of time. The present invention is directed to a grinding material including a base, a grinding layer overlaid on a front face side of the base and including grinding grains and a binder for the grinding grains, and an adhesion layer overlaid on a back face side of the base, in which the grinding grains are diamond grinding grains, a wear quantity of the grinding layer as determined by a Taber abrasion test is no less than 0.03 g and no greater than 0.18 g, and, an Asker D hardness measured from a front face side of the grinding layer is no less than 80° and no greater than 98°.

The present disclosure relates generally to coated abrasive articles that include a tribological performance enhancing composition in a make coat, a size coat, a supersize coat, or combinations thereof, as well as methods of making coated abrasive articles. The present disclosure also relates to coated abrasive articles including a supersize coating comprising a sulfide scavenging composition and/or a crosslinked zinc acrylic binder, as well as methods for making and using such abrasive articles. The present disclosure also relates generally to abrasive articles that include aggregates having an anti-wear composition or grinding aid disposed on or within the aggregates.

A Schiff base-containing chain extender may be a diol having a Schiff base or a derivative thereof, as well as a polyurethane produced using the same and a modification method thereof, and a polishing layer including a polyurethane and a polishing method using the polishing layer.
